FATHER MORICE

chief after the others had talked themselves
hoarse. ‘But you are not a common man;
you are the representative of Him-that-sits-
on-the-Sky (God), and since you insist that
! must go and deliver myself up to the white
chief, I will do so.”

He went; his case was thoroughly sifted,
and he was found guilty and duly sentenced.
Father Morice had once more been instru-
mental in seeing justice come to its own.

This zealous and learned missionary, now
passing the evening of his life in Winnipeg,
Man., whither labors too strenuous for his
strength, travelling over mount and vale,
preaching and teaching, no less than doing
unaided all the work incident on book print-
ing, forced him to repair, belongs to thirteen
or fourteen of the most learned scientific so-
cieties of Canada, United States, England,
France and Switzerland. He has compiled
original maps of the regions he explored,
and published numerous books, scientific
and otherwise; but his most enduring honor
is to be found in the spiritual harvest that
followed the toil of his goodly sowing, amid
the great valleys and lakes of the Canadian
Rockies.
